The parables

The tell us that:

  • The Kingdom of God is a mystery (it grows secretly).
  • It is present in the lives of those who believe.
  • People respond differently to the message of the Kingdom of God.
  • It begins with Jesus’ words and teachings.
  • The Kingdom of God starts small with the individual and increases to include the whole of society.
  • The Kingdom of God is a future reward.

Why did Jesus use parables?
